Do not require AS a,b,c part in LATERAL VIEW --------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-2608 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2608 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Query Processor, UDF Reporter: Igor Kabiljo Priority: Minor Currently, it is required to state column names when LATERAL VIEW is used. That shouldn't be necessary, since UDTF returns struct which contains column names - and they should be used by default. For example, it would be great if this was possible: SELECT t.*, t.key1 + t.key4 FROM some_table LATERAL VIEW JSON_TUPLE(json, 'key1', 'key2', 'key3', 'key3') t; -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
